Question

Which demonstrates statistical inference?

A. If the outlet mall’s capacity is 6% of the town’s population, 4% to 8% of the town’s population shop at the mall.
B. All people are citizens of some country. Mimi is a person. Therefore, Mimi is a citizen of some country.
C. Of the first 10 presidents, 8 were not born U.S. citizens. Therefore, about 80% of U.S. presidents were not born U.S. citizens.
D. If 20% of randomly polled mall shoppers support candidate X, 15% to 25% of people in the area support candidate X.

( So I chose A, because a satitical inference is something with forming judgments about the parameters of a population, right?)

Answer 1

Yes, A.

Answer 2

I choose D

No one says the mall is the right size

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

Yes, you are correct! Statistical inference involves making judgments or conclusions about a population based on a sample. In option A, it states that if the outlet mall's capacity is 6% of the town's population, and 4% to 8% of the town's population shop at the mall, we can infer or make a statistical judgment about the proportion of the population that shops at the mall based on this information. Therefore, option A demonstrates statistical inference. Well done!
